My name is Chao Jung Chen. (CC2856) ,I am interested in Session 9 Maximalism: Programmatic Dutchness
Reason:
I think an architecture model is neither a sculpture nor a painting – it is merely a tool to examine the design and get some degree of understanding of how the actual architecture will look. Also, I am certain convinced that Architecture can be any effort about the real life as form making space in light and shadow in time. Such delineates perhaps a more important site than the site as a plot of land in the city. This form making space in light and shadow in time can have myriad relationships in location to each other via value, hue, and quality. Time can make form. Space can make time. Light can make space. Shadow can make form. And so on.
In short, theory is the province of ideas that precedes action, however, in architecture; theory is never divorced from practice. Compare to theory, architect’s manifesto is a more loosely discursive form, but full of her/his passion and desire. Theory, manifesto and practice are inseparable. On the one hand, architects cannot physically construct the buildings they design without “theory” to guide them, for example, traditional conventions, experimental structural concepts, ideological or aesthetical judgments. On the other hand, “manifesto” relies ultimately on practice to test its hypotheses and assumptions to become theory.
我認為建築模型既不是雕塑，也不是繪畫——它僅僅是一種工具，用於檢視設計，並在某種程度上理解實際建築的樣貌。此外，我堅信建築可以是關於現實生活的任何努力，作為在光與影、時間中的形式創造空間。這樣的界定或許比城市中一塊土地的地點更為重要。
這種在光與影、時間中的形式創造空間，可以透過價值、色調和品質，在位置上彼此建立無數的關係。時間可以創造形式，空間可以創造時間，光可以創造空間，影可以創造形式，等等。
簡而言之，理論是行動之前的思想領域，然而，在建築中，理論從未與實踐分離。與理論相比，建築師的宣言是一種更為鬆散的論述形式，但充滿了他/她的熱情和渴望。理論、宣言和實踐是不可分割的。
一方面，建築師在沒有理論指導的情況下，無法實際建造他們設計的建築，例如，傳統慣例、實驗性結構概念、意識形態或美學判斷。另一方面，宣言最終依賴實踐來檢驗其假設和前提，從而成為理論。
Spring 2008
Seminar Wednesday 11 am – 1 pm
Architecture: The Contemporary (from 1968 to the present)
Professor Bernard Tschumi
Should architecture be judged based on its history? Does contemporary practice grow out of a genealogy of forms? Or, on the contrary, do architects develop ideas and concepts embedded in their culture and time?
If architecture is a practice of concepts and ideas, this course suggests that practice may precede theory as often as theory precedes practice.
Covering the period from 1968 to the present, the seminar will begin with Italian Radical Architecture of the late sixties and early seventies, together with its counterpoint in Rational Architecture. We will end with an examination of the yet unbuilt work of today’s newest architectural practices in relation to issues of post-criticality and utopian realism.
While the course in not yet intended to be a comprehensive survey, it will analyze major ideas, ideologies, and buildings of the period.
